Roland-Garros: "I don't have my license but I like Drive to survive" says Kasatkina qualified for the quarter-finals

Qualified for the quarter-finals (for the first time in a Grand Slam since Wimbledon in 2018) after dismissing the Italian Camila Giorgi (seeded n ° 28), Daria Kasatkina (n ° 20) has, in a press conference, summary: “Before the game, I was really nervous, because I know how she can play; I knew what to expect. At the same time, I didn’t know what to expect. I’m happy with the way I was able to play, the way I was able to deal with the difficult times. “Before giving up on her taste for the series Drive to survive from Netflix:” I don’t think I would be a good pilot. I don’t have my license. I don’t like fast or dangerous things. I don’t like roller coasters. But I love watching this series. As for Drive to survive, I love how each driver’s personality is developed, their thoughts, their training, their way of thinking. I see a lot of links with tennis and certainly with all other sports. It’s interesting. To talk about the tennis series on Netflix, in any case, they know their job, they do it well in the way they film in particular. I think it will be interesting for me to see things seen from the other side. ” In the quarterfinals, the Russian has an appointment with her compatriot Veronika Kudermetova who eliminated Madison Keys 1-6, 6-3, 6-1: “Last year, we played the Billie Jean King Cup together, and before, a few years ago, we played at the European championships together, because we are the same age. So we have a lot of memories together. A quarter-final at Roland-Garros will be a fantastic moment. »
